Molecular Diagnosis and Identification of Leishmania Species in Jordan from Saved Dry Samples

BioMed Research International, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Diagnosis of the endemic cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) in Jordan relies on patient clinical presentation and microscopic identification. Studies toward improved identification of the causative Leishmania species, especially in regions where multiple species exist, and the introduction of these techniques into medical diagnosis is paramount.

The existence of only one haplotype of Leishmania major in the main and potential reservoir hosts of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis using different molecular markers in a focal area in Iran

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2014
Introduction Leishmania major is the causative agent of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL), and great gerbils are the main reservoir hosts in Iran. Abarkouh in central Iran is an emerging focal point for which the reservoir hosts of ZCL are unclear ...

Molecular Identification and Polymorphism Determination of Cutaneous and Visceral Leishmaniasis Agents Isolated from Human and Animal Hosts in Iran

BioMed Research International, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Amplification of internal transcript spacer 1 of ribosomal RNA (ITS1‐RNA) gene followed by RFLP analysis and sequencing was used to identify the causing agents of cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis (CL and VL) in humans and animal reservoir hosts from various geographical areas in Iran.

ULTRASTRUCTURAL STUDY OF HOST-PARASITE RELATIONSHIP AND PATHOGENICITY OF EIMERIA SP. INFECTING LIBYAN JIRD (MERIONES LIBYCUS) (LICHTENSTEIN, 1828) [PDF]

Journal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2013
The relationship of Eimeria sp. and its host fat LibyanJird (Meriones libycus) was studied on an ultrastructural level. The host cellular organelles (nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and golgi apparatus) and the changes of its infected intestinal epithelial cells during the development of parasitic stages (schizogony and gamogony) were ...

The distribution of mucous secreting cells in the gastrointestinal tracts of three small rodents from Saudi Arabia: Acomys dimidiatus , Meriones rex and Meriones libycus [PDF]

Acta Histochemica, 2016
The proportion of mucin phenotypes (which form the protective biofilm of the gastrointestinal tract) differs between intestinal regions. This study examines the distribution of mucin secreting cells in the gastrointestinal tracts of the Eastern spiny mouse (Acomys dimidiatus), King jird (Meriones rex) and Libyan jird (Meriones libycus), which inhabit ...

Morphological and Molecular Techniques as an Integrative Approach to Identifying Sandfly (Diptera: Psychodidae) Vectors of Leishmaniasis in the Jazan and Asir Regions, Southwestern Saudi Arabia

International Journal of Zoology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Sandflies are the primary vectors of leishmaniasis, a parasitic disease of major public health concern in Saudi Arabia. While morphological identification remains the standard for species classification in the Jazan and Asir regions, distinguishing closely related taxa is often challenging and time‐consuming.
